1.) Because he's a NY Yankee, and 2.) Apparently he's been a bit of a dick to Kansas City and St Louis fans lately. He made some comments in an interview or something. You might have noticed Price Fielder's comment about the great fans in the Midwest.

let's not make stuff up now.

he was boo'd (and cheered when he didn't get a home run) because he left (royals player) billy butler off his team. this should have been evident from the pre-derby bitching, and the billy butler chants (just like it was for fielder last year when he left off justin upton in az). :P

I swore I heard he made a comment about midwestern fans or something. Ah well.....the part about being booed for being a Yankee was true.
